Re: Off season Rumors and Speculation

I didnt see this anywhere, just listened to Wells on Dakich show this morning, he says he's hearing the Pacers think Mayo is asking too much and will be out of their price range, Wells didn't think there was anyway that Mayo was coming here now. Im paraphrasing from memory, so feel free to check yourselves.

All offseason I've preached patience, just knowing the team was going to do something to improve this team. Through all the stuff with Roy and overpaying for Hill, and every FA making verbal agreements with other teams, ive preached patience.

BUT

If this is true, and we lose out on Mayo (again) and we end up bringing back Barbosa and/or signing sad a$$ Carlos Delfino, I'm gonna be disappointed with this entire offseason. We finally build some momentum, and have the money to add the thing we need MOST on this team (talent) and we sit on our hands?

Okay I'm back....
Patience people!! There is still hope! I believe we have a good plan....we've got to...right?

Sorry, did I somehow miss them moving the trade deadline to July?

Just because a move doesn't complete the day the moratorium ends doesn't mean it isn't going to happen.

Also, just because there's no successful FA signing does NOT mean the Pacers "sat on their hands".

I get really, really, really tired of the implication that no result = no effort.

Or throw in a first-round pick and flip it for a max-level point guard...

I'm pretty sure Hibbert and Hill want to get their deal done as soon as possible and if we sign them as soon as tomorrow all that cap space we have been talking about since the 3 or 4 years project started will be pretty much gone, so yeah people have reasons to be impatient.
